I knew most wouldn't like it, but i do, and some will, it's for them.
Yeah, it looks like the bathroom wall of a splatter flick, and that's what makes it sick.
Looks like it was used to slaughter 12 virgins in a satanic ritual,...neat!
Gay means lame. It is more commonly used in that context than "happy" - who the fuck has used gay as happy since the Flintstones?
Gay meant happy first. Then it meant homosexual. Then because someone thought homosexuality was "lame" it became a term for lame.
If you think it's lame, why not just say lame? Why gay?
I don't have many "morals" but I try not to use gay to mean lame and I try not to call people retarded. I may call myself that from time to time. But those 2 I try not to use. I'm sure there are gay people reading these threads and I'm sure there is someone with a retarded family member somewhere around here.
That does sound strange coming from me. I shock myself.
But that guitar? It's lame. Ooooohhhh, Razor Blades! How emo. How lame. Well, unless your talking British Steel. But that guitar doesn't scream Judas Priest to me.
EDIT: This post reads like a soapbox. I don't intend it to be that. Call it gay, lame, cool, bitchin, the bees knees, Fuckin A Johnny, shit out my ass, retarded, Whoring Mom Worthy, whatever. Just because I don't use a term doesn't mean you can't. Never intended it to sound that way. CARRY ON!

I try not to let anything offend me. It's all in the context. If someone says "you're retarded", I know they aren't intentionally trying to belittle retarded people, therefore it really doesn't bother me. Now if someone called my son retarded because he has a social disability, then yes that would bother me.
As for gay, I still say gay, and homo and such because I'm a fucking stoner, and I can't think of anything more intelligent to say. Actually, I have gay friends, and I remember one time specifically when one non-gay friend threw something at me while a gay friend was present. I reacted without thinking, saying "you fucking fag" or something like that. I immediately thought "OMG, what did I say?", but the gay friend just laughed. It doesn't make it right, but they must be very accustomed to dealing with this kind of shit, and they most likely realize that in that kind of situation, it just means the same as "you idiot", or whatever.
Whatever. I'm drunk and high so take whatever I say with a grain of salt.

Actually, I think you're right on the point that gay people take that in stride. I did the same thing, I called somebody a "homo" when a gay guy was in the room. He laughed too. But it really bothered me for some reason. So I said something to him about how sorry I was and whatnot. He said he calls people fags and gay all the time. It's no big deal to him. But I felt kinda wierd about it so I started then to try not to use that term to mean something lame.
But like I said, I don't want to be "that guy" even though I am sometimes. Use whatever words you want. It's all good. My thoughts and beliefs shouldn't be thrust on other people. Well, not all the time!
